Personal Details
| Background: | I started out in Boston and graduated from Harvard and Harvard Business School. In addition to consulting work, I've worked at Morgan Stanley, Compaq and eBay, as well as smaller start-up and R&D firms. The independent consulting gave me an appreciation of the highs and lows of "business networking." When my uncle and I began discussing the idea of Connect 4 Lunch, I was instantly hooked. I realized I would have been so much more productive back then and enjoyed marketing myself if I had Connect 4 Lunch to arrange my business lunches. A background in computer science from MIT combined with my experience at eBay and other software firms prepared me to develop Connect 4 Lunch. My wife, Noelle, recently completed her pediatric residency at Stanford, which is what brought us both out to the San Francisco Bay area. |
